Abstract

Keguguran berulang merupakan peristiwa traumatis yang sering memicu krisis psikologis yang mendalam, ditandai dengan rasa bersalah terhadap diri sendiri, kesedihan yang mendalam, dan isolasi sosial. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis secara mendalam proses self compassion terhadap diri sendiri pada wanita yang mengalami keguguran berulang dan faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi proses tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain studi kasus kualitatif untuk mengeksplorasi pengalaman empat peserta perempuan yang mengalami keguguran berulang (dua hingga empat kali), berusia 20-40 tahun, menikah, dan belum memiliki anak. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam semi-struktural, observasi, dan triangulasi sumber (suami dan ibu). Analisis data menggunakan model interaktif Miles & Huberman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa self compassion terjadi secara non-linear. Proses self compassion dimulai dengan krisis, kemudian menemukan titik balik, dan secara bertahap mengaktifkan self compassion. Proses ini dipengaruhi oleh faktor internal dan eksternal. Temuan signifikan lainnya adalah munculnya pertumbuhan pascatrauma. Temuan ini memberikan wawasan teoretis tentang dinamika self compassion dalam keguguran berulang dan menawarkan implikasi praktis untuk intervensi klinis dan dukungan sosial bagi wanita setelah keguguran.

Abstract

Married working women face multiple role demands that can potentially impact their psychological well-being. Work pressures, family responsibilities, and relationship dynamics with their partners make marital quality a crucial factor in maintaining psychological health. This study aims to examine the role of marital commitment and interpersonal communication as predictors of psychological well-being in married working women. The research method used was a quantitative approach with a predictive design through a cross-sectional survey. The study participants were 318 married working women. Data were collected using a psychological well-being scale, a marital commitment scale, and an interpersonal communication scale. Data analysis used multiple linear regression. The results showed that marital commitment and interpersonal communication simultaneously significantly predict the psychological well-being of working women (R² = 0.092). This finding indicates that the higher the marital commitment and the more effective the interpersonal communication in the marital relationship, the better the perceived psychological well-being. Therefore, strengthening the quality of marital relationships through increased commitment and interpersonal communication is crucial in efforts to improve the psychological well-being of working women.

Abstract

Emotion management is essential for addressing the academic, social, and personal challenges faced by students. The ability to regulate emotions affects self-control, the formation of social relationships, and adaptation to environmental demands. Group counseling based on a cognitive-behavioral approach serves as an intervention aimed at transforming irrational thought patterns and maladaptive behaviors into more constructive alternatives. This study utilized a quantitative, one-group pre-test - post-test pre-experimental design. The sample consisted of seven students, purposively selected from two 11th-grade classes at Mojoagung State Senior High School, who met the criteria for low emotional management. The emotional management questionnaire, developed according to Thompson's theory, demonstrated both validity and reliability. Of the 52 initial items, 33 were found to be valid (r > 0.367) and reliable (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.877). The results indicate that cognitive-behavioral group counseling leads to positive changes in emotional management among high school students. Data analysis showed a significant difference between pre and post-intervention scores, with the average increasing from 80.57 to 101.14. The significance value was 0.001 (<0.05), supporting the conclusion that group counseling with a cognitive-behavioral approach is effective in fostering healthier and more adaptive emotional management in students.

Abstract

Strengthening multicultural self-efficacy through counseling requires culturally adapted approaches, including the use of cultural tools. This study aims to validate the Keruntung-integrated Solution-Focused Counseling model (K-SFC) as an innovative model to enhance students’ multicultural self-efficacy. The Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) was employed to obtain expert consensus on the core component of Keruntung within the SFC framework. A panel of 12 experienced school counselors reviewed and rated the proposed model components. The results demonstrate strong expert agreement on the relevance and usefulness of Keruntung as a culturally grounded model that promotes counseling engagement, supports solution-focused dialogue, and strengthens students’ multicultural awareness. The finalized model presents a theoretically sound and culturally responsive framework for incorporating indigenous cultural tools into SFC practice. This study contributes to the advancement of culturally based-counseling interventions and provides foundational direction for future empirical implementation and evaluation of K-SFC in Indonesian school settings.

Abstract

Porn, Masturbation, and Orgasm (PMO) behavior, which is increasingly prevalent in the digital era, is often used as an outlet for stress and loneliness. However, when done compulsively, it can cause negative impacts such as guilt, anxiety, and psychological well-being disorders. PMO is the activity of accessing pornographic content and masturbating to orgasm repeatedly, which can affect an individual's mental health. This study aims to explore the mental health of individuals who engage in PMO behavior. The approach used was qualitative with a phenomenological method to explore the personal experiences of five participants aged 17–27 who actively PMO consistently for more than six months and experienced psychological conflict or changes in mental state due to this behavior. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using an interactive model. The results showed that all participants experienced various forms of psychological distress such as guilt, stress, anxiety, and inner conflict. However, aspects of psychological well-being were also found in the form of self-reflection, hope for change, and efforts to maintain social function. In conclusion, PMO behavior is closely related to complex mental health dynamics, where an individual's psychological well-being is greatly influenced by internal (personality, emotional regulation) and external (social stigma, interpersonal relationships) factors.

Abstract

Adolescents are a vulnerable group to sexual violence due to a lack of sexual education, media influence, and complex social dynamics that exacerbate their vulnerability to sexual violence. This vulnerability is reflected in data on sexual violence in Indonesia, with 16,781 cases of sexual violence in 2024. Sexual violence is not only perpetrated by strangers but can also be perpetrated by parents or family members. This study aims to describe and understand the process of self-acceptance in adolescent girls who are victims of familial sexual abuse. Data were collected through observation and in-depth interviews with two participants who experienced familial sexual abuse at the ages of 14 and 13. The results showed that the participants had self-acceptance, reflected in the awareness that they still have support, a greater appreciation for life, and the choice to continue living. The process of self-acceptance can occur in stages, namely through resisting, exploring, tolerating, allowing, and befriending. This process is shaped by internal and external factors that have the potential to increase self-acceptance.

Abstract

Human capital management plays a crucial role in enhancing organizational competitiveness and employee performance. Organizations must continuously develop employees’ competencies, capabilities, and well-being to achieve optimal work outcomes. This study examines the role of authentic happiness as a mediator in the relationship between work-life balance and learning organization practices and employee work achievement. The study employed a quantitative research design using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze the relationships among variables. Data were collected through a survey questionnaire distributed to 212 employees of PT X in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, selected using purposive sampling. In addition, supporting qualitative insights were obtained through interviews with the Assistant Vice President (AVP) of training to contextualize the organizational environment. The research aims to analyze: (1) the effect of work-life balance on employee work achievement; (2) the effect of learning organization on employee work achievement; (3) the effect of work-life balance on authentic happiness; (4) the effect of learning organization on authentic happiness; and (5) the mediating role of authentic happiness in the relationship between work-life balance, learning organization, and employee work achievement. The findings indicate that work-life balance and learning organization significantly influence employee work achievement, while work-life balance also positively affects authentic happiness. However, authentic happiness does not significantly mediate the relationship between organizational factors and employee work achievement. These findings highlight the importance of organizational policies that promote work-life balance and learning culture to improve employee performance.
